Osama Bin Laden & Sesame Street’s Bert
Yahoo:
Demonstrators hold up a poster of terrorist suspect Osama bin Laden during a pro Bin Laden rally in Dhaka, Bangladesh Monday, Oct. 8, 2001. Within the poster, at center right, is a printed image of “Sesame Street” children’s television character “Bert.”
Azad Products, who manufactures the poster was not aware of the appearance of Bert in one of the collaged images that make up the poster. “We got the images through e-mails and off the internet. We did not give the pictures a second look or realize what they signified until you pointed it to us,” Mostafa Kamal, production manager, told The Associated Press. Sesame Street or Bert are hardly known in Bangladesh. (AP Photo/Pavel Rahman)
